Can today's city govern well if its citizens lack modern
technology? How important is access to computers for lowering
unemployment? What infrastructure does a city have to build in
order to attract new business? In this new collection, Michael A.
Pagano curates engagement with such questions by public
intellectuals, stakeholders, academics, policy analysts, and
citizens. Each essay explores issues related to the impact and
opportunities technology provides in government and citizenship,
health care, workforce development, service delivery to citizens,
and metropolitan growth. As the authors show, rapidly emerging
technologies and access to such technologies shape the ways people
and institutions interact in the public sphere and private
marketplace. The direction of metropolitan growth and development,
in turn, depends on access to appropriate technology scaled and
informed by the individual, household, and community needs of the
region. Contributors include Randy Blankenhorn, Benedicte Callan,
Jane Fountain, Sandee Kastrul, Karen Mossberger, Dan O'Neil,
Michelle Russell, Alfred Tatum, Stephanie Truchan, Darrel West, and
Howard Wial.
